Yo-kai Watch 2 (Level-5)
Level-5's charming Pokemon-like still shows promise, but refuses to budge from its more irritating design decisions.

Summary

Coming from a series newbie, Yo-kai Watch 2: Fleshy Souls/Bony Spirits is an enjoyable game, but there were a couple of things that surprised me.  The mostly-automated battles confused me at first as I wasn’t expecting it, but I did get the hang of it over time.  I just wish the user had more input during them other than healing and Soultimate moves, but other than that and the tedium of befriending Yo-kai, fans of the original game should enjoy the second outing as well.
